In need of reading and stripping out a href links in an off-line HTML file

Hi there.
I'm in need of some guidance with respect to the reading of a
local
(off-line) HTML file, in doing so I need to identfy all of
the links held
within the HTML file, ie., <a href...> ... </a>
and have them populate a
seperate list.
My problem is in that in all of my years of using Director
I've never dealt
with external files to this kind of degree - and having take
quite a break
from Lingo for quite sometime as well, I'm kind of stuck as
to where the
heck I should start!!
Any help/guidance would be hugely appreciated.
Many thanks in advance.
Thanks, Mark.

Many thanks johnAq - your help is very much appreciated.
Kind regards, Mark.

Just bought a mac air with OS X v.10.7 Lion, for work I need to read and write NTFS drives, I install MacFuse and NTFS-3G, but it can not mount (recognize?) External HDD, in my MBP with Snow Lepard it work just perfectly... help please.

Reinstall MacFuse with the one from http://www.tuxera.com/mac/macfuse-core-10.5-2.1.9.dmg. If that doesn't work, you can use Paragon NTFS for Mac 9.0 which has been designed to work with Lion.

Can any one give me the link or code for best zoomin and zoomOut for Images?
Is there any way that I can Zoom Video in flex?

Probably the simplest solution is to use password-based encryption (PBE). See http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/guide/security/CryptoSpec.html#PBEEx
for an example.

System.in.read and System.out.print questions

On the following code, two questions:
1. the output is not what I expected. Why doesn't the System.out.println(i+" "+(char)i); print everytime i press enter a character? It seems to print all at once after everything is entered.
package stars;
import java.io.*;
public class Stars {
public static void main (String[] args) throws IOException {
    String U="";
    System.out.print("What is your name: ");
    while (true) {
      int i=System.in.read();
      U+=(char)i;
      System.out.println(i+" "+(char)i);
      System.out.flush();
      if (i==10||i==13) break;
    System.out.println("\rHello "+U);
}C:\>java -cp . stars/Stars
What is your name: blah
98 b
108 l
97 a
104 h
13
Hello blah
2. What is the most natural way to check for the press of an enter key? Is there a java attribute or method for the "Enter key" since it is different on unix and ms-dos? Thanks

http://scv.bu.edu/Doc/Java/tutorial/java/nutsandbolts/input.html
================
"The read() method provided by System.in reads a single character and returns either the character that was read or, if there are no more characters to be read, -1.
When a program reads from the standard input stream, the program blocks waiting for you to type something in. The program continues to wait for input until you give it some indication that the input is complete. To indicate to any program that reads from the standard input stream that you have finished entering characters, type the end-of-input character appropriate for your system at the beginning of a new line"
================
In other words, Java can't do what you want to do.

Can you provide text for the video, to be read and tried out at my speed?

The video moves too fast, and assumes the listener knows terminology that he or she might not. Talk more slowly and clarify the terminology during the discussion.

Which video are you referring to?
Did you read the related SUMO Knowledge Base article (which is that)?

How do I use serial port read and show text, but not have it scroll off screen?

I am new-ish/returning amateur user of Labview and I am trying to edit the example VI "Advanced serial write and read VI" that is part of dev suite 2012. I need to use the string box to show ALL text received from serial port, always appending and only rolls off screen when more real data arrives at serial port.
What is actually happening is as more bytes (or no bytes AT ALL!) arrive during read time, current text rolls off the string box. Even when 0 bytes are received, screen is blanked out.  I am not very familiar with functions locations and even worse at understanding obscure references to functions, so please keep replies very basic so I can follow.
Just to be clear, I need the string window to behave like hyperterm does-always shows data and it is not pushed out of window arbitrarily.
Thanks,
Steve
Solved!
Go to Solution.

OK- lets start back at the beginning. I have a few questions...
WHy does incoming txt get placed at top of txt box and then scroll up?  why would it make more sense to input at the bottom and scroll toward the top. I have created this huge txt box that appears to be impossible to use.
I have attached example of txt boxes I have tried, and pic of VI I have edited. Bad marks for uglyness....

My ipod only seems to switch on when it is charging, but once fully charged and taken out of its charger it switches off and doesnt turn back on? can anybody suggest what i should do or whats wrong?

Hi
my ipod recently has only been working when it is on charge. Once i take it off charge it switches off automatically, could you tell me the problem or how i can resolve this?

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try another cable
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

My iPhone was on, in a standby position. I wanted to see if I've got a message, pushed the button and found out that my touch-display is off. What can I do? It's just doesn't work. Is something wrong with my battery?

Is anyone had the same problem? Can I manage it on my own?

Would you rather upgrade to windows 8, BlackBerry or Android phones? Do you honestly think those don't have problems?
You waited a lot and chose to buy an early production model. Mistakes happen all the time a factory retools and workers relearn new skills necessary to keep US happy.
Exercise your rights.... Send it back for a new one.
In any case, I feel your frustration. Btw, I love Apple but use a Blackberry

I have windows 7 When I first start firefox works fine but after an hour or so it quits and won't load pages unless you go off line and start over. What can I do?

My question pretty much covers it. The program works fine usually about an hour and then when I go to load a page it comes up blank and you can see it is not searching. The only thing to do is go off internet and reconnect. Sometimes I have to shut the computer down.

The default of the pref network.http.max-connections has been increased from 30 to 256 in Firefox 6+ versions.
Try to decrease the value of the pref <b>network.http.max-connections</b> from 256 to 30 as used in Firefox 3 versions.

Stripping out dashes from variable

I have a jsp page that dynamically build a list of select boxes based on information out of a record set. As I build the select box I am including an onChange function that submits the form once the user selects something from the drop down list. Basically it looks like this: out.println("<select class='select' name='"+selectName+"' onChange='document."+formName+".submit();'>");
Az you can see the select name and formname are also dynamically added based on the record set return. My problem is in the database there are dashes in some of the data so I am getting something that looks like this in my resulting html: select class='select' name='A-10' onChange='document.A-10.submit();'>");
This dash is causing the onChange to not work so I need a way to strip out the dash so that the results would be A10 as apposed to A-10
Any thoughts??
p.s. This is how I filling the variable:
String selectName = request.getParameter("name");
String formName = request.getParameter("DataSet");

first of all, I dont understand why you use multiple forms on one page, but thats just me. Second, you can use
documents.forms[0].submit() to avoid the names. So just loop through your forms and use
out.println("document.forms[" + i + "].submit()");

How to read and display a signal from my PIC Microcontroller onto Labview?

Hi,
I am doing a project on a Pulse Oximeter and i am trying to read and display the signal from my PIC Microcontroller on Labview? How do i go about doing it? I am using the PIC16F877 and also making use of the USART?
How do i implement and initialise the USART in PIC16? What are the steps to be taken, please guide me through the process? The link provides information regarding the USART connection, initialisting and stuff? Is it correct to use these codes in my program?Link: http://ww1.microchip.com/downloads/en/AppNotes/00774a.pdf
Also, i am using the RS232 serial interface to connect to the PC? The connector i am using is the DB9 Connector. Which template and VI can i use? Am i supposed to use the NI-DAQmx and VISA? Also, for my USART connection, i am using the MAX232 Driver which is applicable for my application as i am working with +5V. So far, i have been reading and trying out on Labview and the steps i have taken are:
1) Open a New VI and used the Instrument I/O(Read & Display) template?
2) How do i configure the Instrument I/O Assistant Express VI to read the info from my device connected to COM1?
3) I was reading the Labview Manual, 'Getting Started with Labview' and i was following the steps under Page 55, Communicating with an Instrument. Am i on the right track?
4) How do i check and make sure that the port settings of the I/O Assistant and my PIC Micro Match
Please help me out and guide me through the process. I am student at a polytechnic and i am very new to Labview and the software is used as a development tool for the project. I have a deadline to meet and i hope i can get a response as fast as possible. Your help will be kindly and greatly appreciated. I hope to hear from you guys soon.You can e-mail me all your answers at [email protected]
Thank You
Best regards,
Ashwin

Getting Started with Labview.pdf ‏901 KB

Hi Ashwin,
It is a good idea to first be able to communicate with the microcontroller using some sort of serial communication software such as "HyperTerminal" or "Procomm", etc. Refer to MicroChip's recommendations on this.
Once that works, then you are ready to use LabView.
Here is a link which covers many aspects of serial communication. Link - click here
You probably received a development kit. They usually have a readily available interface. It's been a long time since I played with the PIC, but I seem to remember that you need to program the serial communication driver (as well as at least a bootloader) to get the serial communication going. The driver contains the necessary protocols so that you PC can have a machine conversation with the target (PIC).
It sounds like a fun & interesting project. Please avoid to have replies to your personal email. By having the answers posted to this thread, you will get much more support and advice.
Have fun,
JLV
